Start Decennial Census Reports by Webhook

Send a structured research request to a Notis webhook and get a concise decennial Census report.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Get Decennial Census Data

Tool to retrieve decennial census data for a specified vintage and dataset. use when you need census variables for a given geography.

Why this helps

Recurring internal tools can collect Census questions, but the lookup still becomes a separate manual task.

  • Start reports from an existing form or internal tool that can send an HTTP request.
  • Keep vintage, dataset, and geography explicit in the request.
  • Summarize retrieved data in a consistent report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe how to read the webhook request and summarize decennial Census data.
  • 3Pick the webhook trigger and use its HTTP endpoint as the request entry point.
  • 4Choose a report destination and test with one real request containing vintage, dataset, and geography.
